The best spaces to decorate with red

The children’s room is not the best place to use the color red, as it can excite children and hinder their rest. The red color absorbs the light it receives and is best reserved for spacious and bright rooms. It is advisable to use it in places reserved for eating, since it opens the appetite. That’s why the kitchens in red or the dining rooms and lounges are so beautiful.

Small details in red color

One of the best ways to introduce red in your decor is through the small details. It looks very nice on a white base , for example. Nothing saturates the space and adds a note of color and joy to the rooms. You can use it in cushions, in lamps, in a painting, a carpet, a vase, or even in some furniture of small dimensions.

Leave the rest of accessories in more neutral tones so that the sofa emphasizes and does not saturate, or combine it with vivid colors to create lively environments.
